This is your chance to take it or leave it. Drop a comment here by 6 p.m. PDT Sunday, April 27 and take this off my hands: an autographed copy of my book, “Momma Zen: Walking the Crooked Path of Motherhood.” Or, if you prefer, one of the first copies of the new German translation! (In my mother’s mother tongue, of course.)

It may not change the direction of your life, but it will certainly put my map in motion. To the post office, that is, and headed for any domestic or international address. You read that right. Please specify your language preference for the book– English or German– and make sure you leave a way for me to contact you by email or blog.

English please :). I’m in Canada, thanks for including us here! Please contact me through the blog link in my name :).

I will keep giving your book away, buying it for sister, friends, and strangers, till the cows come home.

Wow, Karen, so many comments. 🙂 I already have an autographed copy of your book – but I would love to throw my name into the hat for a German language copy…my husband speaks the language, and he has family there. Would make a great new mama gift.

Well I just went over to Amazon to read what the book is about and the reviews, and it definitely sounds like a good read. Thank you for the giveaway, and congratulations on your being published!

Lovely generosity!

I already have your book (bought it after seeing it reviewed on Literary Mama), which is how I found your blog. It’s a great read; keep on my nightstand for handy reference.

If it’s not too much to ask, though, I’d love a copy in German for one of my mama friends here in Thailand. (but if too far to send I totally understand…)

OMG! I have to have a copy of the German version for my friend Nadja, from Germany … : )

Where can I get a copy? ; )

Congrats on the new language version … how many languages we talking about now?

I just started re-reading my copy(ies) … thank you, again and again and again. It’s always fresh at every stage, at every age, I’m learning. Can’t wait for No. 2!

Don’t enter me in the contest, as I won an earlier one, but I wish to state for the record that I am not only impressed that you have published a book, but I am extremely impressed by the words in the book that you wrote.

I recently became a Certified Wellness Coach. I believe your book would be a great resource to have to use with my clients.

English, please.

Peace,Lisa

How wonderful! I have already bought your book, however I would love an autographed copy! If I win, I promise to pass on the first book to our local children’s hospital, where my son spends lots of inpatient time, so I know your book would be well read by the many anxious parents!

Karen, I read a few chapters of your book after checking it out from our parent resource library and it was exactly what I needed. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with the world. It has made a huge difference for me. I would love my very own copy- especially one obtained under such special circumstances and with your signature. Thanks again, Karen.Kate (mom to Wolfie age 2)oh yes, English. thanks!
